Hi, I am new using asp.net. I just installed visual
studio.net but I can't open a new project using asp.net.
Is there anything else I need to active or start so it
would work?
thank you
 
Roberto,

To build web applications you have to have IIS (Internet Information
Services) installed on your computer.

IIS comes with windows 2000 pro or Windows XP pro (and of course on the
server versions). But it isn't installed by default. You need to open
add/remove programs and then install IIS from the Windows Applications area
of add/remove programs.

If you don't have IIS installed before you install Visual Studio.Net then
some things won't have been registered properly. So if you install IIS after
the fact you need to register the ASP.Net components and file settings. .Net
provides a way to do so by opening the Visual Studio.Net command prompt (not
the regular command prompt). To do so:

Start-All Programs-Microsoft Visual Studio.Net 2003 (or 2)-Visual Studio.Net
Tools-Visual Studio.Net 2003 Command Prompt

Then, in the command prompt, type the command: aspnet_regiis -i (and hit
enter)

This will register the ASP.Net portions of Visual Studio.Net with IIS.
